I agree, but there are millions of idiots packed into districts across the country who will believe it & defend it. How do I know they're out there? Steve Cohen, AOC, Omar, Talib, Pressley, Shelia Jackson, Elijah Cummings, Al Green Maxine Waters and Frederica Wilson all won elections and are sitting members of congress
Of course. But those people weren't going to change their minds, no matter what was said today. Same for hard Repubs and conservatives.
My point is, anybody with a hint of an open mind will not react well to anybody defending what happened today as being a watershed moment for impeaching Trump.

RE: Official Mueller "Testimony" Watch Thread
Twitter is trying to protect CbBizzle and other snowflakes from the truth. If you search the below tweet, the video embedded has a twitter warning that it may contain "sensitive" materials. What is that sensitive material? A video of Jim Jordan handing Mueller his ass.

Schiff just admitted it’s all about the next election.
What a bonehead.

Wasn't that decision by the Manhattan D.A.?
Are you saying that Mueller had no influence on that decision.
Probably but its a state prison so he couldnt have directed it.
He is at Rikers waiting for a state trial to make sure he stays in jail after Trump pardon's him from the Federal offense. So basically there will be no reason to continue to hold him there after Trump pardons him. He will no longer be a prisoner, but rather a citizen awaiting trial.

I'm curious to know which big bite they were hoping for? So far there hasn't even been a nibble, as even the OLC claim was pretty much blasted apart by one of the Republicans.

As far as I know, Manafort is not at Rikers, nor ever made it there. Barr and the justice department stepped in and said that it would not be allowed to happen.

I don't think they were actually expecting anything new. This hearing just gives them the opportunity to keep talking about the same stuff. It's a way to keep the subject in the news, etc. That's all. For some reason they still think doing so will hurt Trump in the next election.

The fact that he doubled down on the drama and conspiracy theories after he just witnessed mueller choke, just wow. Dems are bound and determined to pander to the 10% of the electorate that make up alt-left twitter.

Also, some of the left media was butthurt over the "unprecedented" act of Barr doing this, without stating that the act of sending someone to Rikers to wait on a state trial was in of itself unprecedented.

Mueller corrects himself: “I want to add one correction to my testimony this morning: I wanted to go back to one thing that was said this morning by Mr. Lieu — who said, and I quote, ‘You didn’t charge the President b/c of the OLC opinion.’ That is not the correct way “As we say in the report and as I said in the opening, we did not reach a determination as to whether the president committed a crime.”to say it.”

This is getting sad this man is almost competently lost when Republicans ask him basic questions that he should be able to answer without even thinking.
Its almost like a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde depending on which side asking questions

As a person who has been around and worked in a medical setting with folks that have/had dementia, it is pretty obvious to me he is suffering from the early stages of the disease. He is contradicting himself because he doesn't remember what he has said earlier and doesn't remember much, if anything about this investigation.

Did quigly just spread the debunked conspiracy theory that Don Jr. had advance knowledge of the wikileaks?
He talked about them AFTER they were released to the public.
Not sending their best!
